Well went got groceries in the family mobile, noticed no heat after warmed up but at a stop rev it up and heat so im thinkn water pump is weak. Get back home and see that I have a leak ok great another problem but cant find the leak gots to be a hair line crack in the heater hoses to the overflow tank. I also noticed a line back to the overflow tank that has good pressure coming from the water pump so now im thinkn water pump is good but still cant find the leak added little water to the overflow tank since it was low dropped a little but still cant find that leak. There is no room to fit my hands in to check the radiator hoses to see if warming up or not. Any ideas where gonna take it in to the dealer since we got the extended warrenty plus get our free oil change but wont be till the end of the week till can do so.

Check the coolant crossover pipe gaskets. There's a TSB out about them being prone to failure.

If you think that's bad you should see some of the new Lexus's...it doesn't even look like they have and engine with all the plastic covers in there.
